Objective To explore the effects of lifestyle intervention on index of early artery diseases in nondiabetic patients with metabolic syndrome (MS). Methods Eighty-seven nondiabetic patients with MS were randomly assigned to the intervention group ( n =47) and the control group ( n =40).The patients in the intervention group received health education,diet control,regular physical exercises,and unhealthy habit correction; however,the control group did not receive any intervention.All the patients were followed up for 9 months.Body mass index (BMI),waist circumference (WC),systolic blood pressure (SBP),diastolic blood pressure (DBP),triglyceride (TG),total cholesterol (TC),high-density lipoprotein cholesterol ( HDL-C ),low-density lipoprotein cholesterol ( LDL-C ),fasting blood glucose (FBG),HbAlc,fasting insulin (FINS),HOMA-IR,high sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP),carotid intima-media thickness (IMT),brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV) and ankle-brachial index(ABI) were measured at baseline and at 9 months.ResultsAfter 6 or 9 months' intervention,BMI,WC,SBP,TG,HDL-C,FPG,HbAlc,FINS,HOMA-IR and hs-CRP of the intervention group were improved (all P ＜ 0.05). HDL-C,FPG,HbAlc,FINS,HOMA-IR and hs-CRP of the intervention group were further improved at 9 months when compared to 6 months ( all P ＜ 0.05 ). In comparison with the control group,BMI,WC,HDL-C,FPG,HbA1 c,FINS,HOMA-IR and hs-CRP were significantly improved in the intervention group at 9 months ( all P ＜ 0.05 ).After 6 or 9 months' intervention,baPWV and ABI were significantly changed ( both P ＜ 0.05 ) in the intervention group although IMT of the carotid did not changed (P ＞0.05). BaPWV and ABI were significantly changed in the intervention group when compared with those in the control group at 9 months ( both P ＜ 0.05).The abnormal rate of baPWV in the intervention group at 9 months was 44.68％. BaPWV and ABI were associated with hs-CRP and HOMA-IR.ConclusionsIn nondiabetic MS patients, health management could significantly improve insulin resistance,modify metabolic disorders,and prevent the development of atherosclerosis.

Objective To investigate the relationship between metabolic syndrome (MS) and education level in Su-Xi-Chang area to provide evidence for healthcare policy making. Methods A clustered sampling of 6798 subjects from Su-Xi-Chang areas of Jiangsu Province was included. Questionnaires and physical examinations were completed to collect clinical data. Logistic regression was used to analyze weather education level could be an independent risk factor of MS. Results Significant differences were found in waist circumstance (WC) ,systolic blood pressure (SBP) and fasting blood glucose (FBG) among participants with different education level. Significant differences were also existed in triglyceride and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) between subjects with higher and lower education level ( P＜0. 05 ). In single-factor or multivariate analysis, education level was negatively correlated with the prevalence of MS (P＜0. 05 ). Conclusions Education level may be an independent risk factor of MS. People with low and moderate education level have higher risk of MS. Therefore,it is recommended that health-related information should become an integral part of the compulsory education system.

Objective To investigate the relationship between metabolic syndrome (MS) and diet style in the elderly. Methods The 781 old people were consecutively selected. Related data were collected by means of questionnaires and physical examinations. And logistic regression was performed to analyze if moderate and high fat diet were risk factors of MS. Results The total prevalence rate of MS in old people was 40. 7%, with 36.7% in old males and 55.4% in old females,and the prevalence rate of MS was higher in old women than in old men (P=0. 000). The significant differences in waist circumferences among three groups of low, moderate and high-fat diet [(86.0±9.3) cm vs. (88.8±8.5) cm vs. (90. 0±7.9) cm, respectively (all P＜0.05)]were found. Fasting blood glucose showed a significant difference between two groups of low and high-fat diet, with the results of (5.78 ± 0.98) mmol/L and (6.27 ± 1.80) mmol/L, respectively ( P＜0. 05 ). The logistic regression analysis showed that odds ratio for people with moderate and high-fat diets were 1. 541 ( 1. 092-2. 174) and 2. 293 ( 1. 317-3. 994), respectively (P＜0.05), which indicated that moderate and high-fat diet was independent risk factors for MS in old people. Conclusions Both moderate and high-fat diets are risk factors of MS in old population, low fat diet with food balance is recommended to old population in order to decrease the prevalence of MS.

OBJECTIVE: To explore a research path and statistical analytical method for cost-utility analysis suitable for gallstone surgery patients.METHODS: A decision-making model for the treatment of cholelithiasis surgery was established;the costs(C) and utility values at each nodal point(? U) were collected,with the results subjected to sensitivity analysis and threshold analysis.RESULTS: The cost-utility ratios(CUR) of laparoscopic operation and open surgery were 4 605.6(? 30%) yuan/QALY and 5 979.7(? 30%) yuan/QALY,respectively.One dimension sensitivity analysis of each( every) parameter reveals that the former CUR value is greater than the latter one.C1 and ? U1 showed the biggest impact on the CUR of laparoscopic operation,while C5 and ? U5 did on the CUR of open surgery.When C1=10 205.6 yuan,or ? U1=1.303 or C5=10 979.8 yuan or ? U5=3.095,CUR of laparoscopic operation was equal to CUR of open surgery,which means that the conversion of threshold was achieved.CONCLUSION: The designed research path and statistic analytic methods are suitable for the cost-utility analysis of cholelithiasis surgery patients.

ObjectiveRetrospectively investigate the characteristics of neoplasma of health checkup participants to find ways to improve cancer detection rate.Methods A total of 186 confirmed cancer patients were enrolled in this study.Personal information,including age,gender,andlocation were collected.The contribution of clinical symptoms,physical examination and laboratory test to cancer detection was investigated.ResultsBiopsy confirmed cancers accounted for 0.133％( 186/140 127 ).Lung (0.036％ ),liver ( 0.017％ ),kidney ( 0.014％ ),colorectal ( 0.013％ ) and gastric cancer ( 0.011％ )were the most commonly found neoplasma.Detection rate of liver cancer in male was significantly higher than that in female (x2 =6.181,P＜0.05 ).Asymptomatic cancer was found in 158 adults (84.9％ ).Ultrasound showed a significantly higher sensitivity to liver,kidney and thyroid cancer than tumor biomarkers.The detection of lung cancer was improved with the combination of X ray,tumor marker( TM ),clinical symptom and low-dose chest CT scan.In 2008,the detection rate for digest system carcinoma (0.083％ ) and lung cancer (x2 =8.538,P＜0.05) was significantly increased (x2 =11.792,P＜0.05).ConclusionsHealth check-up plays an important role in early detection of cancer.The combined use of physical examination,chest X ray,ultrasound test,TM and CT may improve the detection of cancer.
